Agree.

Agree.

Can do. (please see below)

I actually have no references. It seems to me that the microsoft spec
assumes that all external ports must be implemented on root ports, but
I think it would be equally fair for systems with PCIe switches to
implement one on one of their switch downstream ports. I don't have an
immediate use of this anyway, so if you think this should rather wait
unless someone really has this case, this can wait. Let me know.

Interesting. Since this is not in use currently by the kernel as well
as not exposed by (our) BIOS, I don't have an immediate use case for
this. I'd like to defer this for later (as-the-need-arises).

Sure, can do that.

I assume you meant s/is/are/ in last sentence. Will do.
